An economy only has two goods (A and B) which are produced. The goods are neither complements nor substitutes for one another. Good A has a perfectly inelastic supply curve and Good B has an upward sloping supply curve. Both goods have downward sloping demand curves. If the government wishes to implement a per unit subsidy S to increase total consumer surplus then what is the best policy? O Equal subsidy to both goods. Subsidies in proportion to the elasticities of demand for each good. Subsidise only Good A. Subsidise only Good B. Any of the above. No answer.
The market for pizza is characterized by a downward sloping demand curve and an upward sloping supply curve. Suppose that the government forces each pizza house to pay a Php2 tax on each pizza sold. Illustrate the effect of this tax on the pizza market. Label the consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue, and deadweight loss. How does each area compare to the pre-tax case?
